From time to time, dashcams catch heart-warming moments like the one you are about to see.

A duck and its ducklings were filmed while they were trying to cross a busy road in Russia using the pedestrian crossing.

The driver of the car with the dashcam spotted the cute “pedestrians” and stopped to let them cross the street – which they did, with the careful mother looking right and left for oncoming cars.

Fortunately, their adventure ended safely on the other side of the road. It’s just amazing how the mother duck appeared to know what a pedestrian crossing is and how to use it – unlike many other two-legged beings.
